A high quality LED indicator specifically designed for use
in fire alarm systems. Incorporating a red LED that is clearly
visible when active, its primary use is to indicate the activation
of an out-of-sight smoke or heat detector or a fire alarm sounder
circuit. Three inputs are provided ‘OV’, ‘+30V
d.c’ and ‘LED only’. If connecting to a current
limited source (such as a detector) the OV and LED only inputs
should be used. If connecting to a non-current limited source (such
as a fire alarm sounder circuit) the 0V and +30V d.c. inputs should
be used. Can be mounted on a 16mm flush or surface UK single gang
back box.

BF376 24V 5A RELAY ON A
PLATE

The BF376 is a general purpose, double-pole, polarised 24V
5A relay designed for use in 24V fire alarm systems. Incorporating
a red LED which illuminates when the relay is active, it may be
connected to a suitable control panel relay output or a standard
polarised fire alarm sounder circuit to operate door retaining
magnets, rollershutter doors, etc. Note, if connecting to a sounder
circuit, the relay will return to its normal state when the fire
condition is cleared or silenced. Always check with the approving
authority that the proposed arrangement is acceptable before installation.
Can be mounted on a 25mm flush or surface UK single gang back box.

BF367 KEYSWITCH OPERATED
DEVICE ISOLATOR

The BF367 allows a +24V d.c. output from a fire panel to
be remotely isolated to prevent external equipment (such as autodiallers,
rollershutter doors, etc) from operating - a particularly useful
function during routine maintenance as it safeguards against the
inadvertent triggering of auxiliary equipment. The unit incorporates
an isolating keyswitch and amber LED. The switch circuit has been
designed so that if monitoring is used on the +24V d.c. output
being controlled, a fault condition will show at the fire panel
when the BF367’s keyswitch is ‘ISOLATED’. Can
be mounted on a 25mm flush or surface UK single gang back box.

BF366 24V 5A KEYSWITCH
ISOLATABLE RELAY

The BF366 combines the functions of the BF376 relay and BF367 device
isolator in one unit. It is double-pole 24V 5A polarised relay
with a keyswitch isolation facility allowing its relay operation to be
temporarily disabled from the fire alarm signal during routine test and
maintenance (to prevent autodiallers, water sprinklers, etc., from activating).
Mountable on a 25mm flush or surface UKsingle gang back box, the relay
is triggerable via a control panel’s open collector output or a
standard polarised sounder circuit. If connecting to a sounder circuit,
the relay will return to its normal state when the fire condition is
cleared or silenced. Check with the approving authority that the proposed
arrangement is acceptable prior to installation.

FF502P UNIVERSAL 4 ZONE
SOUNDER CIRCUIT EXTENDER

Supplied on a double gang plate and compatible with most fire alarm control
panels, the FF502P provides four extra sounder circuits with open and
short circuit fault monitoring, two external trigger inputs and one fault
output trigger. Connection to C-TEC manufactured panels requires just
3 wires: 24V d.c., 0V & Sounder +Ve. The four sounder circuits may
be configured as two pairs. Each pair can be triggered separately if
required by switching one of two inputs to 0V. This can be useful
for (a) separate 'zonal' fire outputs; (b) use as a monitored relay circuit
to interface with a remote communicator or plant shutdown equipment,
or (c) 'class change' facilities. A low current 'pull down' fault
output trigger is also provided for driving external indicators or switching
a relay via a transistor.

XFP508X BS 5839-6 HUSH BUTTON

A new BS 5839-6 compliant fire alarm solution for houses of multiple
occupation. Designed to sit on an Apollo (XP95 or Discovery) or Hochiki
(ESP) analogue addressable loop, each Hush Button has its
own conventional detector circuit, conventional sounder circuit
and onboard loop isolator. Provides each HMO dwelling with a
two-minute silence facility (to BS5839-6/12.2b) and a 15 minute isolate
facility
(to BBS5839-6/12/2a),
putting occupants firmly in control of their own fire alarm
systems. Provides a level of monitoring of the fire alarm equipment
inside a flat that is simply not possible with domestic detectors.
